Two as One

Posted by Jen (Alpharetta, United States) on 10 October 2007 in Art & Design and Portfolio.

This image stemmed from my oldest son's art project.
He was to take a picture of someone or himself using light to make dramatic shadows. He was to bring in the photo and once approved draw the image himself. He took several photos and found two (one of him and one of his brother) that came out well. He printed both and took them to class to ask the teacher which she prefer he use for his drawing. She suggested he use both since each had very dark areas.
The lightbulb went off in my head...if we could merge the images it could be a pretty cool drawing. So I decided to see what we could do in merge...and this is the result.

Please remember that these photos were taken by my son and the images are not exactly "clear and focused" ...This is not up for critique, I just found it an interesting and a fun experiment that we did together and wanted to share with my Am3 friends

(look Billy I did a little funkadelic like you...LOL)
